Food Find: Starbucks Flavored VIA

This past week the new VIA flavored coffee debuted so of course I picked some up – at the Starbucks in Pigeon Forge, TN on the way to hiking one of our mornings. I picked out the Caramel flavor to try:

Each box is 6 packets worth, for $6.95 retail (though I got the buy a box-get a free tall latte deal with it!). I am sure in enough time this will show up at Costco as well for a much lower price.) The packets weigh in at .6 of an ounce and are 5 1/2 inches long each, making them larger/heavier than the original VIA, due to being sweetened.

Each packet makes 1 cup of coffee, ready to drink unless you like creamer or milk added:

The flavor is subtle and it isn’t heavily sweetened. I enjoyed it very much.
